Seeing Lin Xiao talking to the little girl, everyone present couldn't help but cast their eyes away.
The girl's father was also surprised. He didn't expect that Lin Xiao would pay attention to his daughter. In his eyes, Lin Xiao was obviously a big shot, unlike him who lived as an office worker in an unknown city.
People are obviously different.
However, after hearing Lin Xiao's words, he couldn't help but say: "Academician Lin... are you telling the truth?"
Lin Xiao stood up, looked at the man, and said with a smile: "Since you have chosen to believe in me and the doctors here, there is no need to have doubts anymore."
"You just need to know that your daughter will be able to see you in person soon."
Lin Xiao's words suddenly hit the vulnerable point in the man's heart.
For him, it can even be called his lifelong wish to let his daughter see with her own eyes what his father looks like.
It’s just that in the past, this long-cherished wish was never possible, because who would have thought before that there would be a technology that could completely cure blindness?
Thinking of this, the man's eyes suddenly turned red, and then he nodded heavily, "I understand, thank you, Academician Lin."
Then he no longer worried, but instead expressed hope that the surgery would go smoothly.
Lin Xiao smiled at him, then lowered his head and glanced at the little girl, then reached out and rubbed her head again.
After looking at the time, he said to the person next to him: "Can we start the operation?"
A doctor next to him immediately said: "It's okay now. The electronic prosthetic eye has been delivered, so of course we can start."
"Well, let's get started. Don't keep everyone waiting."
…
This clinical trial operation officially started.
In fact, the surgical techniques are mature. The only more difficult part is to find the optic nerve in the orbit, and then connect the optic nerve to the artificial nerve connected to the electronic prosthetic eye. This is the most troublesome step for the surgeon.
.
Of course, since you have chosen Union Medical College Hospital, you don’t have to worry too much about this step.
Standing in front of the three operating room doors, Lin Xiao lowered his head and looked at his hands.
Because he suddenly felt that his hands were a little itchy.
He has always performed operations on monkeys, and now he has the confidence to perform operations on people. But unfortunately, probably no patient will let him perform operations.
Shaking his head slightly, at this time, another voice came from the side.
"What is Academician Lin thinking?"
Lin Xiao turned around and saw Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan is a researcher at the Neurology Laboratory of Dingguang Research Institute, and he is also the neurologist-level doctor at Union Hospital who performed the artificial nerve surgery.
"It's Professor Chen." Lin Xiao said with a smile: "I was thinking about how much of a shock it would be for the blind to go from being born blind to regaining their sight."
Of course he wouldn't say that he wanted to perform surgery on people, which would still sound a bit surprising to others.
After hearing his answer, Chen Xuan began to think.
"Well...that's a good question."
After a while, he smiled and replied: "From a realistic point of view, it means that you can only see darkness all the time... Oh, for him, he doesn't know what darkness is. In short, it is probably nothing at all.
The world was suddenly filled with light."
"If we talk about it from a philosophical point of view, it means escaping the darkness and entering the light. Well...forget it, I won't guess anymore. I think if I can ask a few patients who have recovered the light later, what will happen?
Our random guesses should be more accurate."
"That's right." Lin Xiao smiled and nodded. If they guessed here, it would be equivalent to doing reading comprehension. But those patients are actually the authors of this reading comprehension. Their own feelings are obviously better than the standard.
The answer is more accurate.
"But having said that, it's really incredible that Academician Lin can make such amazing achievements every time. I wonder if I can tell you how you achieve the interpretation of neural currents?"
Speaking of this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but look at Lin Xiao. Regarding this issue, not to mention him, even all the relevant people in the world wanted to know about this issue from Lin Xiao.
How did he achieve such stable nerve current interpretation?
Lin Xiao smiled and said, "This is a question..."
Seeing Lin Xiao speak, Chen Xuan immediately stared at his mouth, looking forward to his answer.
But the next moment, Lin Xiao said: "Keep it secret for now."
Chen Xuan glared, and finally shook his head helplessly, "Okay, I took the liberty."
This kind of technology is worth thousands of dollars, so Lin Xiao must keep it secret, and Chen Xuan also knows it.
Lin Xiao smiled and nodded.
In fact, if room-temperature superconductors were not classified, he would have applied for a patent long ago.
Of course, he has no shortage of related interests.
For example, although artificial nerves cannot be patented, he still signed a secret agreement with the government. Before the room-temperature superconductor was made public, the government recognized that artificial nerves were his patent, and then he authorized this patent to other national units.
If he is responsible for production, he can still earn patent licensing fees. Of course, after all, he mainly relies on patents to make money, so these problems are not big.
In addition to artificial nerves, current mechanical prostheses and electronic eyes are similar.
Of course, the method of how to interpret neural currents is still in his hands and has not been disclosed, and he naturally accounts for the majority of the benefits brought by this technology.
Therefore, he does not have to worry about others taking advantage of these technologies that belong to him.
Of course, although money and silk are attractive to people, for him, the money he received cannot make him tempted.
He can have everything in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation without spending his own money. He spends hundreds of millions of scientific research funds given by the state casually, so he has never cared much about the money he earned. He just wants to take it.
It was only for his own benefit. Most of the money was handed over to his mother for safekeeping.
As for dad's place, it's up to dad to ask mom to apply.
"Well, I don't know how much I can get after the success of this electronic prosthetic eye."
Lin Xiao thought about this in his mind, and finally shook his head, still not thinking about it anymore. Anyway, no matter how much money he has, it is probably not as good as his 100 truth points.
Next, the two continued to chat. It seemed that Chen Xuan was not busy today and felt very relaxed.
In this way, time passed quickly.
A few hours later.
The red light at the door of the operating room where the little girl Tingting was was turned off.
This means the operation is over.
Many people who were waiting stood up and looked at the door.
The door was opened and the doctor walked out.
Tingting's father was the first to rush forward and asked excitedly and eagerly: "Doctor, how is my daughter? Can she see?"
For a few hours, he felt the most tortured. Of course, he would always think of the scene when Tingting came out, looked directly at him and called him "Daddy". In that scene, he had already
He has been looking forward to it for twelve years, and it is precisely this expectation that has made him wait until now.
The doctor comforted the father and said, "Sir, don't be anxious. This is an eye surgery, so it will take some recovery time, so please don't be anxious."
"Of course, what I can also tell you is that the operation went very smoothly and we have done everything we should do. So now, you just have to look forward to the electronic prosthetic eye being able to work in the future."
Hearing what the doctor said, the father had no choice but to nod his head and said, "I understand. Anyway, thank you doctor."
"Haha, there is nothing to thank. For us doctors, it is just an operation. But if it is successful in the end, you should thank Academician Lin. He saved your daughter."
"Yeah, I know."
The man nodded seriously.
At this moment, a hospital bed was pushed out of the operating room. Lying on the bed was Tingting. Her eyes were bandaged and she was still asleep due to the effects of anesthesia.
The bed was pushed all the way into the ward, and many people followed. Everyone was very concerned.
The other two people were quickly pushed out and entered the same ward.
A group of people gathered around, and three people were lying on the hospital bed, waiting for the final answer to be revealed.
…
"Huh? What is this?"
"Why... is it like this?"
"There seem to be many people and sounds around me, but why do I feel...that there are more things in my mind? It's different from before..."
The anesthesia effect gradually wore off, and Tingting woke up from her deep sleep.
But at this moment, she found that the world she "felt" seemed to have changed.
But in fact, it is bright, just like closing your eyes, but the light can still penetrate the thin layer of eyelids, and your eyes can still see a layer of hazy light.
However, Tingting, whose world has never been bright, did not know that it was bright.
She moved her body and tried to sit up, but her father's familiar voice soon came from beside her.
"Tingting, are you awake? Don't move yet. The doctor said you still need to recover for a while."
"oh!"
Upon hearing her father's voice, Tingting obediently stopped moving.
At this time, my father's voice came to my ears again: "So, Tingting, how do you feel now?"
Tingting replied: "I... feel a little strange. The world I felt before, according to my father's words, was black, but now it doesn't seem so black. It should be... there are some other colors, right?
It’s so strange, I don’t know…”
Hearing Tingting's answer, everyone around them suddenly opened their eyes.
It's not black anymore, but there are some other colors?
What's this?
At this moment, Lin Xiao's voice came: "Tingting, what you feel is light, or in other words - it's bright."
